Hoon Lab showed #mastcells #leukotriene #LTC4 critical in #itch and then Chiu Lab showed LTC4 in itch, while we showed #basophils are a source of LTC4; now we have a pair of papers on #mastcells #leukotriene and #LTC4 in #foodallergy #avoidance in @nature along these

A great collaborative effort by all in LungMAP! We hope that others find this useful-it was a blast working with all of these great colleagues to put this together! #WhyWeScience nature.com/articles/s4146…

The family of Henrietta Lacks, the Black woman whose cancer cells were taken without consent and used to pioneer numerous medical discoveries, reached a settlement on Monday with Thermo Fisher Scientific, a biotechnology company that had used the cells. nyti.ms/3OCeCnN

Excited to present new paper from our lab by Sreeparna Chakraborty and team members on how tissue resident #macrophages respond to "training" rupress.org/jem/article/22… published in JExpMed - #immunology #inflammation #lungbiology #infection - here is a brief tweetorial 1/n

We are thrilled to announce our new publication in Cell today. We go from a human variant JAK1 discovered by Turvey lab in 2017 to unveiling a novel #neuroimmune axis in the airway. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
